Using critical thinking skills is important because it helps us to evaluate information, make logical decisions, and solve problems. It allows us to analyze and judge the information we are presented with in a logical and unbiased manner. Critical thinking also allows us to consider different perspectives and come to an individual conclusion based on our own analysis.
